Abstract: To gain a better understanding of brain tumor angiogenesis, new techniques for isolating brain endothelial cells (ECs) and evaluating gene expression patterns were developed. When transcripts from brain ECs derived from normal and malignant colorectal tissues were compared with transcripts from non-endothelial cells, genes predominantly expressed in the endothelium were identified. Comparison between normal- and tumor-derived endothelium revealed genes that were specifically elevated in tumor-associated brain endothelium. These results confirm that neoplastic and normal endothelium in human brains are distinct at the molecular level, and have significant implications for the development of anti-angiogenic therapies in the future.

Abstract: Detecting harmful or illegal intrusions into a computer network or into restricted portions of a computer network uses statistical analysis to match user commands and program names with a template sequence. Discrete correlation matching and permutation matching are used to match sequences. The result of the match is input to a feature builder and then a modeler to produce a score. The score indicates possible intrusion. A sequence of user commands and program names and a template sequence of known harmful commands and program names from a set of such templates are retrieved. A closeness factor indicative of the similarity between the user command sequence and a template sequence is derived from comparing the two sequences. The user command sequence is compared to each template sequence in the set of templates thereby creating multiple closeness or similarity measurements. These measurements are examined to determine which sequence template is most similar to the user command sequence. A frequency feature associated with the user command sequence and the most similar template sequence is calculated. It is determined whether the user command sequence is a potential intrusion into restricted portions of the computer network by examining output from a modeler using the frequency feature as one input.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus capable of improving productivity in a print job mixedly involving single-sided printing and double-sided printing. Sheets are fed one by one to an image forming section. When double-sided printing is to be performed, a sheet having an image formed on the first side thereof by the image forming section is re-fed thereto so as to have an image formed on the second side thereof. When a sheet for double-sided printing exists, which is posterior in page order to a sheet for single-sided printing, an image forming order is changed such that the first side of the sheet for double-sided printing is subjected to image formation prior to the sheet for single-sided printing. When it is predicted that a state will occur in which the sheet for single-sided printing cannot be fed, the image forming order is not changed.
